Survey Says?

Welcome to our new interactive blog. That's right. Now, much like the "Pick a Path" books of childhood days past, the readers can actually decide the fate of the bloggers on this site. Yup. First up, Objection.

Let's set the scene, shall we? On Friday/Saturday of this week, Objection had an 18 hour date with AG. Things were excellent. Really excellent.

On Saturday afternoon, just as Objection thought the date was going to wrap up, AG decides to start up the DTR conversation. Now, this isn't unreasonable. Afterall, it's date 7 (not that anyone is counting of course).

Here's the tricky part though. Bottom line, AG and Objection like each other a lot. AG, however, isn't ready to commit. He likes things status quo. Objection is fine with status quo (for now). With a demanding job etc, the one date per night talk every day thing is working. So, status quo doesn't bother her, as long as it doesn't become permanent.

The concerning part of the conversation was when AG stated he wasn't ready to put the blinders on. And while he maintains firmly that he can't be in a relationship with multiple people at once, he also said that were he to meet a young lady that he was interested in, he didn't want to feel like he couldn't take her out on a date. He also stressed that he would not hook up with multiple people at once. And, in the interest of full disclosure, apparently back during the first few dates, he was also going out with a few other girls. However, when things stepped up with Objection, he backed off those interactions.

So, what to do?

BFF feels this is grounds for dismissal. BFF is always right about such things. If Objection listened to BFF, Objection would cry much less frequently.

RD hasn't really had a chance to weigh in fully. Once she does, we'll update.

Emily Post (aka Mom)advises as follows. She maintains that Objection should not close off the "relationship" with AG yet because there does seem to be a very good connection. She believes Objection should give it a little while and at the same time encourages Objection to also date around a bit. Of course, Objection is not good at this -- has never done this successfully in the past. Also too, Objection knows only too well that she's going to wonder constantly who else is occupying AG's time. Emily Post also encouraged the contacting of FWB (who she for some reason hearts despite having never met him). But, I digress.

Objection is completely unable to act/think on her own. She is tired of dating. She is tired of heart break. She is tired of analyzing, making mistakes, and the rollar coaster in general. So, she's decided to ask the readers their opinions. How should she proceed? You be the judge.
